• Only use spare parts and attachments supplied by
Ferm. Use of attachments other than those supplied
or recommended by Ferm will invalidate your
guarantee and could be dangerous.
• Do not allow the power cord to lay on or across
sharp objects that might pierce the outer insulation.

ABOVE ALL - BE CAREFUL!
MAINS PLUG REPLACEMENT
If you are in any doubt whatsoever regarding removing
the old plug and reconnecting a new one, you should
contact a competent electrician to do it for you.
• Disconnect the plug from the electric socket.
• Cut off the old plug and dispose of it safely. Under no
circumstances should anyone be able to find and use
a plug with exposed wires.
• Only fit an approved plug with the correctly rated
fuse.
• Attach the cores (wires) to their respective
terminals.
BROWN- L (Live)
BLUE- N (Neutral)
Ensure the outer cable (sheath) is firmly clamped in place
to avoid strain on the wires at the terminals.
Connecting to the Power Supply
Your trimmer is supplied with a non-rewireable
moulded plug and cable, incorporating a fuse. Should the
fuse need to be replaced at any time it must be replaced
with an approved to BS1362 fuse the same rating as the
one you are replacing. The fuse cover is detachable.
Never use the plug with the cover off.
Warning! This appliance is double insulated and
MUST NOT BE EARTHED.
If you have to rewire the plug at any time please connect
as follows:
Attach the blue cable (Neutral) to the terminal marked
N or coloured black or blue.
Attach the brown cable (Live) to the terminal marked L
or coloured red or brown.
DOUBLE INSULATED
This power tool is double insulated. All the
external parts are insulated from the mains
power supply. This makes it unnecessary for
this power tool to be earthed.
Using Extension cables
All electrical connections e.g. extension cable, must be
of an approved waterproof type for outdoor use and
marked accordingly. Extension cables must be three-
core, one of which is EARTH.
As a supply for this machine always use an extension
cable of at least 0.75 mm
2
.
Always fully unwind extension cables before use.

as shown (see fig. 3). Once secure, attach the cord to the
plug. This will prevent accidental 'pull-out'.

TRIMMING A HEDGE - BEST METHOD
Ideally a hedge should be wider at the bottom than the
top. This will improve light penetration, keeping the
hedge healthy. If possible, trim both sides of the hedge.
When trimming the sides of the hedge, trim from the
bottom upwards. This will ensure there are no hedge
trimmings obscuring or interfering with your cut
strokes.
The blade should not be forced to cut too deep. Cut
lightly through the surface of the hedge.
When trimming the top of the hedge, trim away from
you but do not over-reach. It is much wiser and safer to
move along and cut within your reach remaining on two
feet at all times.
Warning! Do not let the blade come into contact
with wire meshing or fencing material. It could
damage the material and your trimmer.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
The following table gives checks and actions that you can
perform if your machine does not operate correctly. If
